[Verse]
|
She had the brown westafrican features
|
She was lookin' sweet as peaches
|
On gorgeous spring day
|
With a thing to say
|
Little or no make-up
|
Covered her face up
|
But brother when she smiles
|
She light the whole place up
|
She was covered from the waist up
|
In a past L-pace scard [?]
|
She's soft
|
Admires with the way that she talk
|
In my thoughts she can't be companied when
|
We're apart
|
Early on I felt that she would own a piece of my heart
|
I don't expect
|
I kept the distance in the physical
|
But moved in on the mental and emotional
|
So she seem more approachable
|
So hopefull I had never been casanova
|
I had never been
|
She's probablly been approached by better men
|
But then again
|
I please the earth-citizen
|
She probablly like religious men
|
That's something that most are conciderin'
|
I sat back and thought about it
|
Then reflect
|
If I approach her with respect
|
I go to got her in a sack
|
Ahhh
|
It got deeper settin' [?]
|
With Latifah, "Glad to meet cha
|
Heard you was a preacher
|
Maybe later we'll speak"
|
I felt numb, dizzy
|
Body tingelin', thinkin' what to say next
|
Ready to sign over my paychecks
|
No disguise
|
On the blessing
|
From her eyes
|
I was guessin'
|
She had been through
|
Enough to know the evil got some men, too
|
I felt the pain
|
I be on [?]
|
Body yell the name
|
After that I never felt the same
|
She felt warm to me
|
Her eyes sang a song to me
|
She long for me
|
The such that I can feel it
|
But too shy to reveal it
|
The strong attraction started creepin' in
|
We can spin together through the universe
|
But must become a unit first
|
We ain't had money for the big [?]
|
But we had the real commitment
|
And the priceless connection
|
The [?] mention of Latifah
|
Sets me deep into the ocean
|
When no scuba absent
|
*this girl is poison*
|
When I'm in pain
|
All she has to do is put a hand on me
|
Y'all ain't understandin' me
|
She: bring out the man in me
|
She: affricate and challenge me
|
She: know how to handle me
|
We: go build this a family
|
Strong up off reality
|
Together in the dschihad
|
We struggle hard to please god
|
With each and every aspect of life
|
We increase
|
And with each pass of year
|
Is more and more clear
|
That god is the reason that we're both still here
|
If we follow his directions
|
We're expactin' his protection
|
And I'm further not a section [?]
|
Of this earth for us to rest in
|
I'm strivin'
|
I'm never satisfied in just survivin'
|
Strivin' to provide a life in which is so feel alright [?]
|
You're a priceless diamond
|
At your feet is where the parents ice is lyin'
|
Even the nicest rhyme in the world couldn't explain
|
This is just my attempted document
|
The blessin' that
|
Walked into my life one afternoon
|
I love you
|
